But he remained calm, his posture relaxed and his hands still clasped behind his back."This is becoming more interesting, I thought I wouldn't see some actions" Andrew smiled as he stared at the stick at Drake's hands.

Please, consider letting him go," Elsa indirectly pleaded for Drake's sake, knowing that Drake would never admit defeat due to his pride."Haha... I guess your precious boyfriend can't even apologize for me to call off the debt," Andrew squatted down, smiling at Drake who was in pain and anger."And now you see me as the bad person. If I were the one losing... Do you know what your boyfriend and his crew would have done to me?" Andrew said to Elsa, recalling past memories of being humiliated by Drake."I know you must have forgotten so soon. I was the same boy who was tied to..." Andrew's voice trailed off as he moved swiftly to the basketball pole, gripping it tightly and looking up."Do you still remember when I was tied here, and your boyfriend, whom you think I'm bullying, was right over there?" Andrew pointed to a spot in the distanc
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain Rival Dojo

She asked Andrew, "What's going on? Are you being pursued by someone?" Andrew steered the wheel while replying, "I made a deal with Master Alec, your father's friend, and I have to be there as soon as possible."Hannah felt a bit perplexed, wondering what kind of business Andrew had with Master Alec. She knew that Master Alec was solely focused on martial arts.Anticipating her curiosity, Andrew decided to explain, "Let's just say it's a short-term arrangement where I'll be getting paid to fight.""Fight!" Hannah's anger flared up, and she clenched her hands. While she knew Andrew was a skilled fighter, she didn't like the idea of him engaging in fights. She didn't want to see him get hurt.

The Crimson student, a towering figure with bulging muscles, effortlessly caught the first Black Dragon student who dove at him. He grabbed the student by the collar and hurled him across the training grounds, sending him crashing into a stack of wooden practice dummies, which splintered on impact."You bastard, you must pay!" another Black Dragon student yelled as he charged forward, his fists launched towards him.

Andrew was led into the wooden house in the middle of the dojo. Some injured students were being carried inside from the field to receive treatment.Inside, Andrew, who had contributed to their victory, sat next to Master Feng while they were served food.The inside of the wooden dojo was filled with writings about martial arts. The light was soft and gentle, reflecting off the wooden floor.The seating area featured comfortable cushions on mats, creating a cozy and relaxing atmosphere. They were low tables with intricate carvings in the center that held simple cups, plates, and bowls.Another corner housed a small garden designed in the traditional Japanese style. It included small rocks, a peaceful water feature, and bonsai trees. Andrew and Hannah sat on the mat while the food was being served. Andrew quickly began chewing on the food that had been placed on his table, unconcerned about what was happening. Andrew eagerly dug into the steaming dumplings in front of him, savoring e

Andrew had promised Master Alec that he would do something and he will have to do everything possible in other not to shame the Black Dragons dojo,"The Black Dragon dojo," he murmured, swirling the wine in his glass. "I have to find a way to help them, to give them the edge they need to defeat the Crimson Shadow." He took a long sip, the rich flavor doing little to quell the turmoil within him.Andrew shook his head, "But not today," he said, placing the glass on the table. "Tonight, I need to rest and clear my mind." Leaning back into the plush cushions of the couch, he closed his eyes, allowing the warmth of the flickering firelight to wash over him.The next morning, Andrew set out on his daily jog, his mind already focused on the tasks that lay ahead. As he turned the corner, he caught sight of a young woman jogging in the opposite direction. She was undeniably beautiful, her figure

What's Going On?
Andrew jolted upright, gasping. His breath came in short, ragged bursts as he scanned the room—dim morning light filtering through gray curtains, the quiet hum of the air vents, and the soft weight of his coat folded on the chair.He was in his room. “But… how?”His eyes darted around, confused. The last thing he remembered was… the rooftop. Hannah. The conversation. And Taylor—Taylor was tracing the KAIROS list.He staggered out of bed, his bare feet brushing the cold floor, tension rippling through every muscle.Something was off.He murmured, “I don’t remember coming back.”He rubbed the side of his neck, checking for signs. No injection point. No bruising. Just a faint pressure behind his eyes, like something had been pressed into his mind and then hastily pulled back.His gaze landed on the phone lying face-down on the desk.He walked over slowly, picking it up.“What was the last thing I did?” he muttered.“Taylor…” The memory came back in pieces. “We were tracking access to Han
KAIROS ACCESS 6B
Liu's penthouse was unusually quiet. Andrew stepped out of the elevator onto the top floor of Liu’s tower, his footsteps muffled against the marble. He turned into a narrow corridor and approached a blank wall panel concealed behind a decorative wood carving. He pressed his palm against the biometric scanner. A soft beep, He stepped inside. It was the surveillance room, on the main display, six monitors cycled silently through camera angles—each one a different section of the penthouse.He tapped a command key, isolating the feed from the lounge.There she was Hannah, she was curled up on the far couch, wrapped in a soft gray blanket. A cup of tea rested untouched on the table beside her. She looked tired. Andrew watched her in silence, she shifted slightly, pushing the blanket off her legs. As she stood, her hand moved instinctively over her lower stomach.He stared as she walked to the kitchen and opened a cabinet, and retrieved a small pill bottle. Two tablets into her palm. A
I Feel Like We Have Met Before
Fredrick leaned back in his chair, arms crossed, eyes narrowing as he tried to process the storm that had just hit the room.“Wait,” he finally said. “You’re saying Hannah’s in Liu’s penthouse?”Andrew gave a stiff nod.“And she’s pregnant?”“Yes.”Taylor was pacing now. “This... This changes everything.”Leon looked between them. “Does she know who you are? That you’re there?”Andrew shook his head. “She didn’t recognize me. Not with this face.”“What are you going to do?”Andrew walked slowly to the window and looked out. The Shanghai skyline shimmered beneath the late afternoon haze, the buildings casting long shadows across the streets.“I don’t know,” he said finally. “I don’t know what I can do.”He turned to face them.“If I go near her, I put her at risk. If Liu finds out I knew her before, everything falls apart—my cover, the summit plan, all of it. He’d use her. Or worse.”Leon leaned forward. “But she’s in his house. That’s already a risk.”“I know,” Andrew said, jaw tight.
She Is Carrying My Child!
The next morning Mei had already left for the hospital and Andrew was going to check if Liu was there as usual stepped out of the elevator onto the residential floor, his mind still clouded with the previous night’s meeting. He walked toward the hallway that curved past the sitting room, heading for the guest wing where Mei had once mentioned her private library. He figured it would be empty, and he could think in peace.He didn’t expect to see anyone. But as he turned the corner, someone walked straight into him and it was Hannah.She stumbled slightly, bumping against his chest. He instinctively caught her, hands gripping her arms to steady her, he saw her...it was really her.The soft curve of her jaw. The subtle scar near her left eyebrow. The way her lashes fluttered when she looked up at him in surprise.His breath vanished from his chest, she didn’t recognize him.“Sorry,” she said softly, stepping back. “I wasn’t paying attention.”Andrew couldn’t speak. His throat locked up.
Full Time Liars
The elevator slid down as Andrew stood beside Liu, hands clasped loosely in front of him. He could still hear Mei’s voice in his head: Her name is Hannah.Liu, for his part, looked strangely amused. He glanced at his reflection in the mirrored elevator doors and smirked.“My wife thinks I’m too harsh with people,” he said suddenly.Andrew looked over, silent. “She says it’s why I lose sleep. That maybe I would rest better if I let one or two people in.”He turned to Andrew with a raised brow. “You think she’s right?”Andrew thought carefully before answering. “You rest better when you don’t have to look over your shoulder.”Liu laughed—sharp and real. “See, this is why I like you, Li. You don’t flatter me. You survive me.”They finally stepped out into a private executive suite on the 52nd floor—one of Liu’s secured business floors, far removed from the family residence above. Two guards stood at the ends of the hallway. Taylor was already there as he had already come ahead of time a
Almost
The elevator ascended through Liu’s residential tower. Andrew stood alone, dressed in black from collar to cuff, shoulders square, eyes steady. The city below shimmered through tinted glass—clean, mechanical, heartless. Like the man he was walking toward.He had received the message less than twenty minutes ago:“Come to the residence. We need to talk.”When the elevator doors opened with, Andrew stepped out into the private hallway of Liu’s upper penthouse. It was like walking into another world—warm lighting, mahogany walls, soft classical music drifting from somewhere he couldn’t see. For a place built by a man with blood on his hands, it smelled like jasmine and eucalyptus.He turned the corner and almost bumped into someone.“Oh—Li!” a familiar voice called brightly. “I was hoping to catch you.”Andrew stopped mid-stride and softened. “Mama Mei.”Meilin Zhen—Liu’s wife—stood by a corner cabinet, placing a vase of fresh peonies into place. Dressed simply in a white blouse and bla
Antenatal; I Love You Like A Daughter
The rain that fell heavily at night had stopped by morning. Hannah stepped out of the hostel with a scarf wrapped tightly around her head.The coins in her pocket jingled softly with every step—her entire week’s worth of tips, spare change, and what remained from her last cleaning job.Just enough, she clutched the folded leaflet from the shelter in her other hand. It listed public hospitals that offered prenatal services in the city, and one of them, Red River Women’s Clinic, was circled in blue pen."Just get there....Just register.....Just try." They was crowded, too loud, too fast. By the time she arrived at the hospital’s main lobby, her palms were slick with sweat. She looked up at the signs—mostly Mandarin, with some awkward English translations beneath them—and approached the front desk where two nurses in white uniforms were checking papers from a young couple.When it was her turn, she stepped forward hesitantly.“Hello... I, um... I want to register... antenatal care,” she
My Inner Man
The elevator ascended through the tower. Andrew stood alone in the glass capsule, as he could see himself in the mirrored wall as he moved Forty floors beneath him, Shanghai.But here, on the way to the seventy-second floor, everything was muted. He adjusted the cuffs of his jacket and ran through the pitch in his head again. There were no second chances with Liu. A single misplaced word could tear everything apart. Still, Andrew's face was calm, unreadable. As the elevator slid to a stop with a soft chime, the reinforced doors opened into a private vestibule guarded by two men in black suits. Neither spoke. One waved a biometric scanner in front of Andrew’s eye. It beeped once.“You may enter,” the other said.Andrew stepped through the glass security gate into Liu’s sanctuary.The penthouse office stretched out like a blade—clean angles, matte black walls, a white marble floor that absorbed the sunlight pouring through windows.In the distance, the Huangpu River glinted like merc
My Guys Always Have My Back
Monitors lined the walls of where Taylor, Fredrick and Leon resided. Each was streaming security feeds, decrypted chatter, and scrambled comm logs. Taylor sat before them, expression locked in concentration.The fact that Taylor, fredrick and Leon not being arrested was a bit strange, despite the fact they were involved. To the public, it looked like an airtight case: millions rerouted through dummy accounts, data trails forged, and Taylor’s login credentials stamped across the audit logs.But inside the network, those who mattered knew the truth: Andrew had been framed.Taylor, Fredrick and Leon, weren’t charged—not because they were innocent, but because they were smart. They didn’t run. They didn’t hide. They stood still and watched the flames burn around them.They knew the moment they disappeared, it would confirm guilt. Instead, they played it slow—publicly cooperative, legally protected, and always one step ahead of the full investigation.The firm’s real players—those who orch
